Unfortunately, this bowl was yesterday’s breakfast and not today’s 😓 • Working 9 hours today, to help fuel the cafe and açai bowl place hopping habit, that I like to do way to often in the warmer months 😋🙌🏼☀️

Purple and blue foods, especially blackcurrants, are high in an antioxidant called anthocyanin, and give purple foods their color tone.
In addition to helping with our blood system, this anthocyanin helps to relieve inflammation, helps manage diabetes by regulating blood sugar levels, and may help to fight cancer and assist with weight loss!
A study of the Okinawan people who live longer and healthier in their senior years, contributed part of those longer years to eating the root food, purple sweet potatoes another food rich in these magical anthocyanins!
What other foods do you think would contain this antioxidant?

If you look closely I’m literally licking my lips at the sight of this little number from @thebotanistlb. 🍽 An exciting day for this hungry little fella - first time trying @sunfedmeats chicken free chicken (a generous serving too) and my first turmeric latte lol. Sunfed was yum, probs still prefer seitan but a nice change. Re turmeric I don’t know if I was inflamed before but I guess I’m not anymore which is good and it kinda just tasted like chai so.. 8/10? 🤷🏻‍♂️ p.s. swipe for salad close up.

I've been trying this new thing and tbh I really have no idea what I'm doing 😂 I just see stuff on instagram and go "that's a bit cool I wonder if I can do that?" and sometimes the answer is "kinda but not really" 🤷🏼‍♀️

Cacao muesli and almond butter breakfast pizza with fruits and yoghurt. Vegan, gluten-free recipe.
This healthy fruit and muesli pizza make the perfect easy breakfast, brunch or dessert. It is one of those dishes that are not only beautiful but absolutely delicious! This fresh recipe is full of color, vitamins, and fiber. The crust is chewy and naturally sweetened by maple and brown rice syrup. You can easily make this healthy dessert dairy-free by using coconut yoghurt.
Ingredients:
4-6 Serves
2 cups @crowabout Almond Maple & Cacao Breakfast Cereal
1/2 cup almond butter
1 tbsp brown rice syrup
1 cup plain coconut yoghurt
1 cup fresh fruits and berries
fresh mint
Put muesli into a food processor, and using the pulse button, whizz until small crumbs. In a large bowl, mix the muesli crumbs, almond butter, and brown rice syrup until combined.
Press the mixture into a 20cm pizza pan lined with parchment paper. Chill for an hour to set. If you're in a hurry, freezing for 15 minutes will do the trick.
Remove from pan, then top with yogurt, fruits, and berries. Garnish with mint, serve and enjoy.

Whoever said that being vegan or vegetarian 🌱 would mean you miss out on the good “meat” dishes, were clearly wrong 🙅🏼‍♀️ • Although I was never a huge fan of mince, yet I LOVED lasagna; chickpeas, lentils and beans make perfect substitutes in traditionally meat orientated meals 🤤🍝 • I am excited to get in the kitchen and create a delicious meal and see what this mince is all about 👌🏼 • It makes me so happy seeing more and more companies making meat alternatives 👏🏼

Raw snickers slice! I couldn’t decide on which recipe to use so.... I combined both of them☺️ @tasty.twinsss healthy peanut butter and chocolate slice and @picspeanutbutter snickers slice. It’s dangerously good 😂 I kept the chocolate topping quite bitter (as I’m a dark chocolate fan!) and the middle pb, caramel layer is quite sweet (because of the dates) so it works perfectly 🙌 The crunch of the peanuts tops everything off😉 Definitely a treat to satisfy my sweet tooth 🦷

Feeling the happy feels in this moment.
It means so much to me being able to spend time at home with my family. It really sparks up my positive energy. Soaking up every last minute of being on holiday and living in beautiful Marlborough ☀️🧚🏼‍♀️

Doing nothing right today 🤦🏼‍♀️ Trashed my legs at Sprint on Sunday, trashed my legs again at RPM this morning, then lifting according to my ego instead of RPE. I know, I know. Change is coming, but it's hard. This has been a 2-year process of trying to wean myself off an exercise addiction that had me overtraining 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year, doing ALL OF THE CARDIO. I've cut down a lot but it's still a work in progress 💁🏼‍♀️

You too can make your own sauerkraut..it’s easy! These are mine.
Be sure to use organic cabbage whenever possible and add herbs, seeds & vegetables to vary the flavour. I add beneficial bacteria from a ferment that I get from Health food stores to make sure I get a variety of the most important strains.
I also add seaweeds into them because them you get the symbiotic effect of probiotics + prebiotics which multiplies the benefits.
Probiotic is the beneficial gut bacteria and prebiotics are its special nourishment. Both are essential to a healthy gut.
With the yellow cabbage, I used Wakame pieces and Smoked Kelp seasoning, and with the red cabbage, I added Dulse Flakes and Sea Lettuce Flakes. Try your own mixtures… it’s fun to make!

Have you ever seen something so exotic yet so natural and healthy?
This is @sarahtannernz's Cosmic Cake and she has shared the full recipe on her original post!
Can you spot the Cacao ViBERi blackcurrants on the top? We reckon that if you were after a purple layer you could chuck some of our powder in there! ;)

#DidYouKnow : The stalk, rind, or skin of a fruit or veggie is typically better than the actual fruit.
In most cases, the outside of the fruit or vegetable in question is more nutritious than the inside. This is depressing because the inside is usually the part that tastes good. Much like the orange peels mentioned earlier, there are creative ways to get these nutritious parts of the vegetable into your meals.

Another day another flat lay but I didn’t really have any other angle options when there were so many delicious things at once. 😋😋💅🏻💅🏻 It’s heating up now which means we get to eat outside and the produce atm is 👌🏼👌🏼. Hence this fab little vege spread w our lovely cajun cauliflower (recipe on #alexeatsplants PS you will not regret - def a good option for @meatfreemondaynz), a cute lil rocket salad w some balsamic sesame asparagus and red onion, guac (obviously) and a beautiful salsa (the @bosh.tv boys’ recipe is the simplest and best I’ve had - grated tomatoes give best consistency). So fresh so clean so yum.
Who wants someeeee? I have leftovers 💚💚.

Sunday family time. 💑🐱 You always have time to play, activate, stretch, balance, or mobilise. "I don't have time" is a myth. "It's not a priority for me right now" is more accurate; and if that's the case then that's totally okay. If it's not a priority, don't beat yourself up for not doing it. However, if it *is* priority for you (whatever "it" is), I'll let you in on a secret... time is not something you find, it's something you make. 🤫

Vegan mushroom hash stack from @caferoyalepn in Palmerston North for a family catch up. They had a full plant based menu which had so many options it was almost overwhelming, awesome to see smaller towns starting to cater for plant based people ✊

A perfect little toastie for a dusty Sunday lunch 😂🍷. Asparagus, mushroom, avo and tofu ‘cheese’. 🤤🤤. Let’s talk cheese real quick. I toooootally get the resistance to ditching #cheese in your diet. When I was still eating dairy the thought of a dairy free toastie seemed a bit off.
Buuuut I gotta say, going vegan was one of the top 3 decisions I’ve ever made and I do not miss dairy at all. I understand it can be hard to rethink meals you’d normally put cheese on though, so a few little bits to keep in mind:
Supermarkets stock dairy-free cheeses (cc @angel.foodnz) pretty widely now. It’s not the cheapest, but is a great way to help you transition over in the short term.
I make cheeses from nuts (google cashew cheese! Sooo good), and the gooey white stuff in this little guy is actually made from TOFU! Just whizzed up w garlic powder, salt, lemon and NUTRITIONAL YEAST. (Doesn’t taste like tofu). I’ve all caps’d because NY (or nooch) has a distinctly ‘cheesy’ flavour and really does the job. Sprinkle it like parmesan, or mix it into your cheese alternative like I’ve done here to get a super cheesy flavour.
Best bit - no animals are harmed AND you’ll look and feel better. Win win win (third one because it just tastes better 😅).
